Awesome work Sam.... Definitely a nice pick up for a second car.... bulletproof. I think I told you about my cousin's wide body ls430 on aftermarket Air suspension. His car is insane. My cousin had the drain issue also... had something to due with the taillight OEM LED's.
It’s so frustrating when it seems like a major problem but it’s just a simple fix, glad you got it fixed though! I experienced something similar with my ‘05 BMW 530i recently. It was leaking fuel, so I replaced the fuel pump, lines, gaskets, etc. and even was told I needed to replace the fuel tank (which requires dropping the drivetrain on my car) but it turned out one little cap on the side of the tank wasn’t installed properly…
The squeak is an idler pulley. The sound goes away because the grease and bearings inside the pulley warm up. It’s telling you it’s time for new pulleys.
@@Sam_Dunn I had to drive 2.5 to get home, but oh my god. It drives like butter. Make my 2012 Chrysler 300 sound like a hunk of crap, lol Before started my journey home, I checked the the oil, it was empty. Buddy offered me $ 10,000 while I was getting an oil change. He was serious, lol. I hadn’t even been in the car for an hour, ha! Seriously, what kind of mechanic does a safety check and doesn’t check the oil? Shitty one for sure. I'm going to check my air filters this morning. Lol, for it is 08, I would have never known. She will see my mechanic tomorrow morning for a good once-over.
My LS460 also started doing the same exact squeak and I'm guessing it's either the belt or the waterpump. Really hoping that it's the belt because I don't have time to replace the waterpump lol. Please update me/us what ends up being the solution to the squeak. Thanks!
Ive watched a mechanic worked on these ls460s hes very good mechanic for working on toyotas a and lexus and what I've heard from toyota and lexus owners that when it comes to maintenance and problem's and issues that these ls460s have can cost a fortune to work on these
Lol! I would be upset myself discovering the issue. But hey man. Happy you got her back in your possession. I just figured out a slight misfire issue with mine. Did plugs and all of that only to find out the fuel rail sensor was faulty and causing an o2 issue lol.
@yachtls not yet. The weather has just started getting a little better up here in Massachusetts, so I will be taking advantage of the next close to 60 degree day to fix my baby. Gotta have tge 460 running well man haha.
@yachtls aye man. Im glad for you. Ive been following your page and vlogs man. I remember when yours went down, so im happy for you to have yours back in action. I definitely will keep you up to date man. Thank you for that. 🙏🏾
I just bought a 2008 LS 460 and couldn’t find any performance mods but then I found “Holley Split-Design Race Intake Manifold” and was wondering if you ever heard of it?
Where did you buy the skid plate for your car? Does it fit for all yrs Lexus LS460? I have a 14 Lexus LS460 F Sport and can you send me the link. I would like to buy it. I love your videos and sound of the straight pipe on your car. Thank you so much bro.
I'm glad you got that car back. Also, Wil you get one of the high performance versions from Lexus? There is the Lexus ISF, Lexus RCF, Lexus GSF, and the Lexus LFA.
@@Sam_Dunn However Sam, those cars that I'm talking about are quite rare and they're quite expensive these days. If you do manage to find one at the used car lot at your local Lexus dealership, be prepared to make a purchase of one.
Hey man, to be completely honest with you I'm not sure! Check out some Lexus forms and see if anyone else can provide you with better information. Good luck, and if you find anything, definitely let me know!
@@Sam_Dunn survived it and walked away, going 90 on a 2 land country road in the rain and double flipping. Got 42k for it too after only paying 39k so that was nice I'll miss my F Sport Crafted line
Excited to see the build of the 430!
You will be part of the LS 430 build!
Glad you got it running bro!!! I love the sound of my Lexus for sure! Just got it back and I can't stop driving it lol

Great to know! Thank you!
Super excited to get mine on Saturday!
Let’s go!! How do you like it?

Most definitely will!
Dielectric grease is needed on the belt and the bearings means water got in there
Got ya! Thanks for the tip!
So happy the Lexus is finally up and running 🥳🥳
glad to here the car is back.

That’s awesome! How do you like it so far?
Hey, I'm looking at buying a 2009 LS460 L Executive, and I'm wondering if there's any ecu piggyback or aftermarket ecus for the 1ur-fse?
Hey man, to be completely honest with you I'm not sure! Check out some Lexus forms and see if anyone else can provide you with better information. Good luck, and if you find anything, definitely let me know!
Belt should not squeak in any weather... Probably old belt, weak tensioner, old bearings?
I agree! I have to look into it a little bit further! As the weather warms up here, I have not heard any squeak for about a week🤷🏼
congrats bro
I flipped mine 2 years ago, drive safe
Ahh man! Sorry to hear that! Hope you were ok!!
I appreciate it! Most definitely will!

“Take this whole thing apart pretty much” hahahaaha
Headlights restoration
Get bigger and wider rims. Itll complete the look
